So, after finalizing the divorce papers with Steven, Hannah didn’t waste any time in letting her former
assistant go, despite her being quite
Pa pocketed her phone and asked, “Where do you fancy going then?”
Hannah replied, “Haven’t decided yet, really. I’d appreciate it if you could help me brainstorm some
options. It’s October now, and it could be pretty chilly in Zurich. I should really give it a second thought.”
Pa said, “All right, I’ll do some research on travel guides and see where’s good to visit in October.”
Hannah said, “Thanks, I owe you one.”
Pa replied, “No sweat.”
Hannah returned to her room and barely had the door shut behind her when she received another
message from Jared.
“The forecast says Zurich’s been raining cats and dogstely. Gloomy weather can be a real downer.
I’m considering moving to another city. Any suggestions, Hannah? Or where are you headed? I could
use some ideas.”

Hannah’s heart skipped a beat when she saw the message. Thankfully, she had been on the phone
with Cornelia, which made her feel less scared.
Sheposed herself and told Cornelia, “Nelly, I just told my assistant I’m not going to Zurich, and
Jared texted me saying he’s not going as well. When did you suspect something was off with my
assistant?”
Cornelia said, “I can’t be sure if your assistant is up to something, but from now on, be on your guard.
y dumb and try to keep them off bnce. I’ll check if there are any direct flights back home from
Paris today. If there are, I’ll book one for you. You need to get back here ASAP.”
Hannah replied, “All right.”
But the very next second, Hannah received another message from Jared, “Hannah, I need to handle
somepany business personally, so I have to head back to Harbor City sooner than nned.
Hopefully, you’ll agree to travel with me next time I’m free.”
Hannah asked, “Oh? What’s up?”
Jared gave her a vague response, “Just work stuff.”
Jared didn’t borate, and Hannah didn’t feel it was her ce to pry, so she simply said, “Okay, safe
travels!”
Jared texted back, “Hannah, everything I said to you a few days ago was from the heart. Please give it
some thought and let me know your decision. Don’t dismiss me so easily.”
Now the mere thought of the guy freaked Hannah out. There was no way she’d consider him. But she
didn’t dare reject him outright either. After all, she was a stranger in a strangend, with a potential
threat lurking around. Her top priority was ensuring her own safety.
She told Cornelia, “Nelly, Jared just texted saying he’s heading back early.”
Cornelia asked, “What’s he ying at? I can’t make heads or tails of it. Hannah, he may have ulterior
motives. You need to be careful…” Before Cornelia could finish, Hannah interrupted, “Nelly, hang on a
sec. I’ve got a call on my work phone. Let me take this.”
The call was from the productionpany of a TV series Hannah was part of. Thatpany also
happened to be Jared’s managementpany, so they had a close working rtionship.
Hannah was worried Drew might try to pressure Jared through her. Even though she didn’t want to take
his call, she felt she should return it out of courtesy to the investor, “Hello, Drew.”
Drew said cheerfully, “Hannah, I heard a rumor online that you’re quite chummy with President Dixon of
the Dixon Group. Is that true?” Truth be told, Hannah and Steven used to be close, really close. But
now that they were divorced, Hannah wanted nothing more to do with him.
She replied with augh, “Drew, you should know better than to believe everything you read on the
inte. Can you even tell what’s real and what’s not?”
Drew said, “Hannah if you do know President Dixon, could you introduce us? I have a really important
matter that I need President Dixon’s help with.”
Hannah replied, “Drew, let’s set aside whether I really know President Dixon. Even if I do, I’m just a
regr actress. Would the CEO of the Dixon Group lift a finger to help you just because I asked?”
